Bernie’s Chicken Legs
I rolled into the parking lot a few minutes before time. The regular crew was around and waiting to get going. A late arrival by Spokes in a big truck and Twin in a small car(completely backwards from normal) and I was yelled at to get on with it. SO, we got to it! Standard […]
2nd Q – More Stressfull Than The First
Seems like that second ever Q has a lot more stress attached to it than the first. Pax have to be nice on the first one, or at least that’s what they said. Second one better bring some pain. Again, that’s what they said. So with all that mumble chatter running through my head, it […]
Back Blastin’ is Fun
Let’s talk about humidity, shall we? Humidasa’ Rain storm on the lake over a charcoal grill Humidasa’ Hot shower in coveralls and wool socks Humidasa’ Green house in summer with a slip n slide Humidasa’ The stairwell at ER in July with a Number Two in it…. I started sweating when I walked over and […]
Just a dribble anymore
Pre: Twin placed himself on IR following all the hard work making sure that his deck was well constructed. YHC offered to help him seal the deck, but he politely declined my offer to place my caulk all over his deck. So, I offered to sub for him at the Den. Cannonball heard about the […]
Mumble Chatter top notch
On days that mumble chatter is high it always seems to make the workouts and mornings better. Well mumble chatter was very high Wednesday when we took off on our run [Ex: “So ____I hear you are going to try and run a marathon. Do you really think that is a good idea? I don’t think […]
Some men run alone

Friday night is the welcome reception, Saturday includes a morning beatdown, 2-3 hr Q School, afternoon break, then the overnight ruck, and service […]
It’s a Full Body Prison Break
Full Body workout planned but just didn’t know how I wanted to play it out. Legs or Arms first or mix it all together. I arrived a few minutes early to get the Block coupons out so we could maximize our time. Warm Up (IC at various counts) – SSH’s, LBAC’s (forward, reverse, Moroccan night […]
Red light green light
What a beautiful morning in the little town of T’ville temps in the 60’s and a crispness in the air. And 4 pax rolled into The Jurisdiction to see what Tapeworm had in store for us. And before we got started we were talking about how many traffic lights you go through from Taylorsville to […]
Groupies and other girls
Goodwill left unheeded the reminders of his Q, but the Pax were optimistic he would give the kids a nip of brandy and come out to beat us down with, like, four miles of bear crawls and gorilla poundies or whatever his impossible workouts are called. Our optimism was dashed by 5:16. Babyface, not wanting […]
